Green Valley Organics, the only organic, certified humane®, makers of lactose free yogurts, kefirs and sour cream, announces two new products available nationwide.
Sebastopol, CA (PRWEB) February 07, 2012

“I continue to come back to Green Valley Organics as my brand of choice, both personally and for my lactose-intolerant patients,” said Tamara Duker Freuman, RD, CDN.

Green Valley Organics® has two new reasons for dairy lovers to enjoy their all natural, probiotic-packed lactose free products: Peach Yogurt made with juicy, organic peaches and Strawberry Pomegranate Acai Kefir, a smooth, creamy blend made with organic, antioxidant-rich fruits.

“When we introduced Green Valley Organics nationwide in September 2010, we created a new category. We were the first to introduce real cow dairy lactose free yogurt and kefir and we continue to be the only organic and Certified Humane® brand to be available nationwide,” said Green Valley Organics Owner Jennifer Bice. “Consumers are literally ‘eating it up’ and we are responding. We’ve added new flavors and larger sizes, and new offerings with the introduction of our lactose free sour cream in 2011.”

“The estimated 10 percent of Americans who are lactose intolerant don’t need a special month to remind them of all the tasty, nutritious and convenient dairy foods they’ve been missing out on – it’s an issue 365 days a year,” said Tamara Duker Freuman, RD, CDN, who treats a wide range of digestive health and nutritional conditions from her New York City-based private practice. “Most supermarkets now sell lactose-free milk, but only recently have Fortune 500 companies started marketing lactose-free yogurts as well.

“I continue to come back to Green Valley Organics as my brand of choice, both personally and for my lactose-intolerant patients: it has both plain (no-added sugar) and lower-sugar flavors, it’s made with organic milk, it comes from a single, Certified Humane® dairy farm in California, and it doesn’t contain unnecessary fillers and preservatives,” added Freuman. “While it’s encouraging that large corporations are responding to the needs of this long-ignored group of consumers, it’s frustrating that the new crop of lactose-free yogurts being marketed have up to 26 grams of sugar per modest 6-oz serving, do not offer ‘plain’ varieties for weight conscious or diabetic customers who need to avoid added sugar, and are loaded with processed food additives and preservatives that have no business being in yogurt. After all, yogurt is supposed to be a healthy food!”
